SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires numpy, discretize, simpeg.

What problem does it solve?

SimPEG KI provides a structured, executable blueprint to run earth science simulations autonomously, reducing manual setup and error-prone workflow handoffs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive workflow wrappers: mesh/survey building, model initialization, forward/inversion execution, and results parsing.
  • Diagnostic knowledge: access to 18 triplets documenting common failures and remedies.
  • Preflight and policy: mandatory checks ensure model binaries and data are available before execution.

Quick Start

Run a full gravity inversion workflow using the SimPEG KI skill with default settings.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate geophysical forward modeling and inversion workflows?

Automate geophysical forward modeling and inversion end-to-end by orchestrating mesh setup, survey configuration, model initialization, execution, and results parsing across gravity, magnetics, DC resistivity, and EM methods.

What methods are supported for running SimPEG simulations autonomously?

SimPEG simulations support gravity, magnetics, DC resistivity, and EM methods, covering the full pipeline from mesh and survey setup through forward and inversion execution to results parsing.

How do I set up a gravity inversion pipeline step by step?

Set up a gravity inversion pipeline by configuring the mesh and survey, initializing the model, executing the forward and inversion operations, and parsing the resulting data using default workflow settings.

Do I need numpy and discretize to run geophysical inversion workflows?

Yes, you need numpy, discretize, and simpeg installed, as these dependencies provide the foundational numerical operations and mesh generation required for the geophysical workflows.

Why does my geophysics inversion workflow fail before execution starts?

Geophysics inversion workflows fail before execution if mandatory preflight checks determine that required model binaries and data are unavailable, preventing runtime errors and ensuring environment readiness.

How can I troubleshoot common errors in geophysical forward modeling?

Troubleshoot common errors in geophysical forward modeling using 18 diagnostic triplets that document frequent workflow failures and their corresponding remedies, ensuring stable execution across methods.
